On sale from $29,605 excluding the $835 destination charge, the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid is a tough cookie to crack in its segment. Better still, the new model boasts 16 HP on top of the 2016 model year.
For $300 more than the old Accord Hybrid, the new kid on the block also gets best-in-segment fuel economy ratings of 49 mpg city, 47 mpg highway, and 48 mpg combined (4.8, 5.0, 4.9 l/100 km). In the mid-size sedan realm, no other hybrid can pride itself with a combined output of 212 horsepower. The get-up-and-go comes courtesy of a two-motor hybrid powertrain and an efficient 2.0 i-VTEC Atkinson Cycle engine.
In EV mode, the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid is able to drive on electric power alone for short distances. Customers can rest assured because the battery pack is covered by an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty. ”The Accord Hybrid is the ultimate Accord, offering exceptional dynamic qualities with the greatest technological sophistication and fuel efficiency in the Accord family," said Jeff Conrad, senior VP and General Manager of the Honda brand at American Honda Motor.
Depending on trim level, the mid-sized hybrid sedan is equipped with standard and optional equipment that includes front and rear parking sensors, remote engine start, rain sensing wipers, auto high-beam headlights, as well as heated rear seats. Design features exclusive to the hybrid model include an aluminum hood, blue highlighted LED headlights and ‘Hybrid’ exterior badging. Thanks to the compact battery, trunk capacity is a segment-leading 13.5 cubic feet (382 liters), enough for a weekend away from home.
The Accord Hybrid isn’t just frugal and spacious, but also laden with active and passive safety technology. Standard safety features come in the form of a rearview parking camera, Lane Keeping Assist System, Lane Departure Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation Braking System, Forward Collision Warning, and Road Departure Mitigation. To those souls who would rather this ultra-economical sedan instead of a 2017 Toyota Camry Hybrid, have fun configuring your 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid.
